“Do you think…I can’t…” I’m having great difficulty voicing coherent thoughts. Not to mention, I’m also on the verge of hyperventilating.

I relented and let my best friend inside the room, hoping she’ll be able to help me regain composure and figure out what I should do.

“Calm down.” Katherine pats my back soothingly. “You had no way of knowing. Especially since you’ve been so wrapped up in work and wedding planning.”

Something in her words, in her tone, brings my eyes up to clash with hers. “I had no way of knowing,” I repeat numbly. “Meaning…you knew?”

Her smile is sympathetic yet pitying. And that speaks volumes.

Frantic, I nearly rip the engagement ring from my finger and slam it down on the small table off to the side of the room. I stand, my chest heaving with heavy breaths, and stare down at what I’d thought was a beautiful token of the start of our lives together as a married couple.

Now, though, all I see when I look at this diamond ring is betrayal and lies.
